We had a blast sharing tips for when challenges arise in circles and learning new practices like “Seven” with the Hawthorn School District 73 Middle North staff! #culture #middleschool #advisory

These two ladies will help your team discover your “two words” or, as was the case at ROWVA CUSD #208, your three words 😉 that will guide your district’s climate and culture! We loved facilitating your team retreat this summer ROWVA Tigers 🐯 !!! #culture #purpose #vision

Honored to have been with 5 outstanding districts over the last 4 weeks!! Thank you @CLINTONCUSD15 @ROWVACUSD208 @mgsredbird @District_73 @barrington220 for allowing us the opportunity to support your incredible communities!!! #backtoschool #TeacherPD #wellness #caregivers

Fantastic day spent with the educators in Clinton CUSD #15 learning about how stress impacts brain development and the ways in which trauma ‘shows up’ in our classrooms. #backtoschool #classroom #trauma

[SEL Integrations @SELintegrations]

Our first “Caregiver University” in Clinton CUSD #15 was wonderful! Thank you to all who came out - you are amazing!!! #caregiver #backtoschool #emotions #womanownedbusiness

How is it the middle of August already?!?! Be on the lookout for recaps of our summer travels working with incredible district teams from all around the state! #backtoschool #socialemotionallearning #teachers #womanownedbusiness #havingfun

Wonderful day w/staff in School District 194! Participants learned a framework for facilitating community circles, which strengthen connectivity, trust, and relationships. These wise educators enjoyed sharing and learning together! #selintegrations #staffpd #restorativepractices

Come #nuture your soul with Lindsay and other amazing presenters at the @Paired_Learning Nuture Retreat for Educators in August. The beginning of the school year doesn’t need to be filled with anxiety - we bring the calm by first taking care of ourselves. #foryou #educatorPD

[Autumn Elizabeth Parrish @parrish_ae]

Registration is open for my first ever retreat and I’m somehow completely calm. I’ve put it all on the line and trust that this space is needed in Lake County and beyond. Educators, this is for us!💛

@parrish_ae @Paired_Learning Thanks for the love Autumn!!! 🥰

[SEL Integrations @SELintegrations]

Another great Caregiver University night @District_73 💞🎉#selintegrations #womenownedbusiness

[SEL Integrations @SELintegrations]

Laughter and fun during PD!!! That’s just our style 😎🎉 #teacherpd #womeninbusiness #selintegrations #traumainformed

Amazing Tier II training w/compassionate clinicians @hawthorn_73 Why are systems crucial? So we shift from, “How do we help Billy?” to “How do we set up structures/supports to help the next 100 Billys?” Systems improve the quality of relationships w/students ❤️ #selintegrations

[SEL Integrations @SELintegrations]

We can’t help students behave better by making them feel worse. We studied communication skills & using boundaries & empathy to create safety for kids. We’re so grateful for our partnership with @hawthorn_73 🎉❤️ #restorativepractices #teacherpd #parentuniversity #selintegrations

[SEL Integrations @SELintegrations]

Great day @mgsredbird! Teachers r taught to find deficits, then “fix” kids. How can we help kids reach their potential if we don’t see their potential 1st? We must look for/acknowledge strengths in others, then build on that for growth to occur. #traumainformed #selintegrations

[SEL Integrations @SELintegrations]

Spent the morning w/ the wonderful admin team from @hawthorn_73 learning more about restorative practices & how to have difficult conversations that actually strengthen relationships & help us be authentic 🌟#restorativepractices #selintegrations #traumainformed #womeninbusiness

[SEL Integrations @SELintegrations]

Staff kick-off @ Metamora Grade School—huge success! We explored how to use a trauma-informed lens, & the SEL Team shared the amazing resources they created for staff🎉👏Cheers to an amazing year for MGS!!! #metamora #teacherpd #selintegrations #womenownedbusiness #weloveteachers
